A former guest returned for more punishment. (Just kidding.) Dr.
Natalie Borg, Protein Chemist at Monash University, returned to
update us on her synchrotron analysis of protein crystals and her
L'Oreal Australia For Women in Science Fellowship. Retro
Techno Dave described the "WOW!" moments from his recent trip to
science and technology museums in Denmark. Other stories were: the
extent of human long-term memory, the first animals shown to be
able to survive the ultra-harsh conditions of space, and a
serendipitous benefit to the atmospheric radiation released from
the testing of nuclear bombs.
